Franklins’ breakout TV role was in the British soap Crossroads in the role of Joe Townsend debuting in 1969. He followed that up with his Doctor Who debut two years later as UNIT Captain Mike Yates in Terror of the Autons while Jon Pertwee starred as the Third Doctor. Following his time in Planet of the Spiders, Jenkins continued to play Mike Yates in specials, spinoffs, audio plays and in the novel he wrote, The Killing Stone, with his character serving as the lead of the tale.

Additional TV credits include The Doctors (1970), Little Women (1970), The Pathfinders (1973), Blake’s 7 (1980), The Borgias (1981) and Heartbeat (1997).

Jenkins also has multiple big screen credits including his final portraying Death Star Engineer Sirro Argonne in the Gareth Edwards-directed Star Wars film Rogue One.

In addition to his work as an actor, Jenkins was also a writer, journalist and political activist.
